        img.setBounds(151, 99, 325, 284);
        contentPane.add(img);
    }
}

Edit: I Tried Using Bytearray . Though its not showing me any error but it is not giving me any out put . ! here is the modified portion

   try {
        String q = "select image from showme where id='"+id.getText()+"'";
        PreparedStatement ps = con.prepareStatement(q);
        ResultSet rs = ps.executeQuery();       
         if(rs.next()) {
            byte[] imgss = rs.getBytes("image");
            //Resize The ImageIcon
            ImageIcon mage = new ImageIcon(imgss);
            Image im = mage.getImage();
            Image myImg = im.getScaledInstance(imgss.length, imgss.length,imgss.length);
            ImageIcon newImage = new ImageIcon(myImg);
            img.setIcon(newImage);
            JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Done");
        }
    }

Answer 1

ERROR:

java.sql.SQLException: not implemented by SQLite JDBC driver
at org.sqlite.Unused.unused(Unused.java:31)
at org.sqlite.Unused.getBlob(Unused.java:86)

AT:

//problems might be occurring in here 
Blob blob=rs.getBlob(2);

TRY:

Byte blob=rs.getByte(2);

Answer 2

Use getBinaryStream() instead. Something like the following:

ResultSet rs=ps.executeQuery();     
InputStream in = rs.getBinaryStream("image");
ByteArrayOutpuStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int bytesRead = in.read(buffer);
while (bytesRead > -1)
{
  out.write(buffer, bytesRead)
  bytesRead = in.read(buffer);
}
byte[] picture = out.toByteArray();
in.close();

You will of course need to add exception handling to the above.

If you are using the Apache Commons IO library you can simplify that using IOUtils.toByteArray()

ResultSet rs=ps.executeQuery();     
InputStream in = rs.getBinaryStream("image");
byte[] picture = IOUtils.toByteArray(in);

Answer 3

try this:

byte[] byteArr = rs.getBytes("image");
